Healthcare assistant future career

2 replies

Hi all, I am currently a healthcare assistant apprentice in a specialist department when I have just been offered a band 2 healthcare assistant role which will go alongside my apprenticeship programme which would mean I would be working for more money (if all foes above board). I have verbally agreed to take up the position but now am wondering if by august when my apprenticeship is due to end if another opportunity arises such as ward hca or training to do my nursing apprenticeship as I am interested in it, where do I stand and would it just be simple as handing in my notice. I have taken this for now on the basis it gives ,me job security as well as loving the job but in the long run I want to challenge myself further. What are people opinions as whether I am thinking logically or not?

It will stand you in good stead for future opportunities, definitely take it and then keep an eye out of jobs when you finish your apprentiship there won't be an issue in applying :) you'd just apply for jobs you'd be interested in and if successful hand your notice in to your current one- although as it would be internal more a case of leaving one team and role and joining another!
